CNN
is now pushing an effort to “ban the term fake news” after the slogan
became synonymous with CNN itself thanks to President Donald Trump.
In
a CNN opinion piece written by Hossein Derakhshan and Claire Wardle,
who are affiliated with the globalist Council of Europe, the authors
argue that the term “fake news” has “become meaningless” and lost its
power because politicians (primarily Donald Trump) have hijacked it as a
way to “undermine” the media establishment.
The authors decry the
fact that many people now believe the mainstream media peddles
“fabricated stories” and that information monopolies are being
challenged by the ability for “anyone in the world” to have a platform.
Complaining
that “less powerful agents can harm large institutions or established
individuals,” Derakhshan and Wardle warn that trust in institutions is
declining and that only through intervention at the level of “public
education” (ie indoctrination) can this be reversed.
Of course,
the real reason media elites want to clamp down on the term “fake news”
is because its original intention, to smear and discredit opponents of
Hillary Clinton, right of center media outlets, and people who distrust
the mainstream media, has completely backfired.
This was
illustrated yet again by Donald Trump’s tweet earlier today when he
suggested that a “fake news trophy” should be awarded to the network
that has been responsible for the most inaccurate reporting.
“Fake
news” was one of many excuses trotted out after November last year to
push the narrative that President Trump’s election was somehow
illegitimate.
In reality, a major Stanford University study found
that “even the most widely circulated fake news stories were seen by
only a small fraction of Americans,” and that the most widely believed
fake news stories were those that benefited Hillary Clinton.
Fake
news had virtually no impact on the election, but the establishment
media weaponized the term as part of an agenda to silence and censor
voices of dissent, including media platforms, that had opposed Hillary
Clinton’s presidential campaign.
In addition, mainstream media
news coverage in the weeks leading up to the election was 91% negative
towards Trump, according to a study by the Media Research Center.
The
Podesta emails also revealed how mainstream journalists were completely
in bed with the Clinton campaign and even ran stories by them before
publication.
The “fake news” narrative has completely backfired on
the political establishment and the media because it has acted as a
boomerang, showing the mainstream media to be the most consistently
dishonest entity of all.
Is it any wonder therefore that the political class is now so keen to retire the term altogether?

During an appearance on a radio show, former DNC chair Donna Brazile said, “I hope to God we find out who murdered Seth Rich.”
Speaking
with SiriusXM host Mark Thompson, Brazile, whose explosive new book
Hacks has caused embarrassment for the Democratic establishment, spoke
of her deep affection for Rich.
“He was my child. I loved him. He
worked in the voting rights division, I was the vice chair over that
division. He was one of two staff people. I love him, I miss him. He was
a patriot,” said Brazile.
“I hope to God we find out who murdered Seth Rich,” she added.
Beginning
to cry, Brazile responded to a question about her feeling responsible
for his death by stating, “He was my child….I have been in politics all
my adult life, the only children I have are the children that I have
hired. They’re my children.”
In her book, Brazile also reveals
that she was frightened for her life after Rich’s murder, beefing up her
home surveillance and shutting the blinds in her office so she could
not be seen by snipers.
The murder of Seth Rich remains unsolved,
but the mainstream media continues to dismiss any questions about it as
“conspiracy theories”.
Back in August, Pulitzer Prize winning
journalist Seymour Hersh said he saw an FBI report leaked to him by an
insider which confirmed that Rich had contacted Wikileaks with sample
emails from the DNC leak and asked for payment for the full data dump.
Rich
was murdered in an upscale area of Washington DC on July 10 last year
but the killer or killers did not steal anything from the victim,
rendering the police’s explanation that the incident was a robbery gone
wrong doubtful.
Infowars reported on the questions surrounding
Seth Rich’s murder multiple times back in August last year, including
how there was around an hour and a half of “unaccounted for” time
between Rich leaving a bar and being killed.
Brad Bauman, a crisis
communications manager for the Democratic Party, was hired by RIch’s
family to act as their spokesman. Bauman’s first action was to insist
that people stop questioning the unsolved circumstances behind Rich’s
murder.
For many the Democratic establishment’s attitude to
leakers was crystallized by an email John Podesta sent to the Clinton
campaign’s inner circle in February 2015, when he remarked, “I’m
definitely for making an example of a suspected leaker whether or not we
have any real basis for it.”

today's move produced a very strong daily candle and on the monthly chart it appears to be breaking out of a bullish pennant. Obviously the weakness of sterling is having a positive effect on the market and maybe it feels that was the last rate hike for some time ?
The market needs to close below 7521 (mid-point of today's candle body) to throw the bullish case into doubt

- He also said that the Washington lawmakers involved in Russia-bashing close their eyes to repeated meddling by the US in the internal affairs and electoral processes in many other countries. “I would like our government to talk about our involvement in campaigns, most recently in Ukraine

The anti-Russian hysteria was stirred up in the US to draw people’s
attention away from real problems, Paul said, adding that he is more
concerned about a crisis in US relations with Russia as well as US
actions in Syria

Real money is earned by real people who produce goods and services of
real value. Fake money is conjured up and controlled by insiders in the
financial sector, and it is made available at preferential rates to
other large Establishment players. Government (or, more broadly, the
Deep State), big business, and Wall Street are the main beneficiaries.

Since 1971, the U.S. has had fake money (not attached to gold). This
has been the reserve currency of the entire world financial system. This
has misled investors, voters, consumers, and businesses. It causes them
to believe things that aren’t true – that they have almost unlimited
credit, for example… that they can afford an expensive empire overseas
and a costly welfare state at home… or that they can run up debts and
grow their way out of them.

As more and more of the nation’s resources are captured by fake money
and directed into unproductive uses – consumption, bad investments,
government, war, paperwork, and regulatory compliance – GDP growth,
“real” (inflation-adjusted) wage growth, productivity growth, and other
markers of genuine prosperity decline.

All “wealth” created by fake money is fraudulent and/or temporary. Look for it to go back whence it came.

That is the background economic-monetary outlook.

We are in our fourth decade of the fake-money system. And its distortions and corruptions are now catching up to us.
It is a system that runs on credit, not on wealth. But the world’s
credit is getting thin. Total world credit now exceeds $230 trillion,
with about $60 trillion added since the debt crisis of 2008.
Since the output of the world is not enough to carry these debts –
not to mention the promises made to future retirees – they will have to
be offloaded, one way or another, either by bankruptcy (deflation) or
more money printing (inflation).
That is the story we’ve been following for the last 18 years.
Meanwhile, there is also politics. It has wound itself about the economy’s neck like a python suffocating a jogger.
